In episode 1120 of Detective Conan titled "The Secret of the Lost Treasure," Conan and Sonoko visit the pottery workshop of Ukishima Kenzo to assist in cataloging artworks. Upon their arrival, they are introduced to the 70-year-old potter Ukishima. Sonoko brings gifts from her uncle, and they discuss the artworks, one of which was purchased by a wealthy art collector, Sawada Munetake.
During their visit, an expensive vase is found shattered. Conan uses his detective skills to reconstruct the sequence of events that led to the breakage. Several of Ukishima's students, including Adachi, Miyuki, and Tomoko, are present and become involved in solving the mystery. Initially, Adachi is suspected of knocking over the pot but denies breaking it. Through various witness statements and timelines, it becomes clear that the pot was intact until shortly before its discovery.
The actual cause of the pot's breakage is a cat that entered the room through a small window, got startled, and accidentally knocked over the pot. The situation is resolved when Ukishima presents a similar jar he had made himself, and the tensions between the students and the collector Sawada, who had arrived excitedly to pick up his purchase, are eased.
The episode ends with the characters reflecting on what happened, and Ukishima agrees to continue mentoring his student Tomoko despite his retirement plans. The mystery concludes with the revelation that the chaos was unintentionally caused by the cat, exonerating all human suspects from deliberate wrongdoing.
